You got 26 out of 30!

Dear Quizly, in this quiz, I found that you’d made a couple of errors. Please find the details of these below:

1. In your question: On which continent is the country of China located?
– In your answer, you said, ‘The correct answer is “Asia”. China, officially the People’s Republic of China, is a country in East Asia. It is the world’s most populous country, with a population of more than 1.4 billion.’

I don’t know when you at Quizly first wrote this quiz, but this is overdue to be updated, because China is no longer the world’s most populous country. India’s population officially overtook that of China in April 2023. At the time of writing this (in late October 2025), India’s population has been estimated to be just over 1.46 billion, whilst China’s is just over 1.41 billion. India’s population is continuing to grow at a more rapid rate than China’s is.

2. In your question: On which continent is the country of Suriname located?
– You stated: ‘The correct answer is “South America”. Suriname is a small country on the north-eastern coast of South America. It’s defined by vast swaths of tropical rainforest, Dutch colonial architecture and a melting-pot [of] culture.’

In the interest of accuracy and spirit of helpfulness – I’m NOT being pedantic or nit-picking – but thought that you would want to know that your word ‘swaths’ is not the correct spelling: it should be “swathes”.
